Smoking - Smoking 2008
Written by Frank Mangano   

Smoking dependency is incredibly common today and each and every time a person chooses to smoke they are inhaling 4,000 different types of chemicals that include nicotine. Nicotine is extremely addictive and increases the levels of pleasure inducing brain chemicals that include serotonin and dopamine. Tobacco has been used as a mood altering substance for centuries. When nicotine is ingested into the system adrenaline production increases, which then raises your heart rate and your blood pressure levels. Nicotine affects many different aspects of your body and mind.

Tolerance to the affects of nicotine develops quite rapidly and this combined with the increased pleasure of smoking makes cigarettes incredibly addictive. This means that the amount of nicotine needed to create the pleasurable affects increase, forcing you to smoke more and more frequently, creating an unstoppable addiction. Once you become addicted your body will begin to rely on the nicotine on a daily basis, which is called smoking dependency. Deciding to quit smoking at this point in the habit will create physical symptoms of withdrawal such as frustration, anger, increased appetite, headache, stomach cramps, slowed heart rate and rise in blood pressure.

There are many authorities today, which have stated that it is harder to quit smoking than heroine or cocaine. Smoking creates physical and psychological dependency and this is a combination that can be hard to handle. The physical addiction is easier to overcome than the psychological because the physical symptoms only last a few weeks but the psychological form of withdrawal is constantly nagging in your mind and can be hard to ignore. When you have decided to quit smoking there are many natural supplements, which can be used in order to help reduce the withdrawal symptoms and help you eliminate your smoking dependency.

  • Coenzyme Q10 can be taken twice daily in dosages of 200 mg. This supplement aids in the oxygen flow to the brain and protects the heart tissue.

  • Coenzyme A works with Coenzyme Q10 to remove harmful substances from the body. Use as directed.

  • Grape Seed Extract helps to repair and protect the lungs. This can be taken in dosages of 2 capsules, 3 times daily.

  • Vitamin B Complex is vital in cellular enzyme systems, which are often damaged due to smoking.

  • Vitamin C with bioflavonoids is an important antioxidant that protects against cell damage. Smoking drastically depletes the body of Vitamin C, which means this supplement should be taken in a minimum dosage of 5,000 mg daily.

  • Vitamin E is one of the most important vitamins for smokers. This supplement helps protect your cells and organs from damage by the smoke. Use the d-alpha tocopherol form, which is the natural form of the vitamin.

Smoking dependency is something that can be overcame with the self-discipline and the right natural supplements to help reduce the withdrawal symptoms and help you remove the need for nicotine at a faster speed. Medications prescribed to help quit smoking should be avoided due to the risk of serious side effects.
